Introduction

My heart was all aflutter this weekend.
Daughter #2 came home for the weekend.
So, Saturday, we celebrated the niece's birthday, and the next day, I cooked Sunday dinner. We called the grandparents as they are ready volunteers and easy victims.

I prepared one of my easiest and most favorite regional comfort foods -
Chicken and dumplings.
I wanted to share the recipe.

Ummm...was there a problem with the cake? I've eaten cake at your house and haven't had to lick it off of the floor.

I'm making note of the recipe for the Geezer - the would be the chicken and dumplings, not the cake.

LOL :D MMMM...the chicken and dumplings look delicious, and I'll have some salad too. Maybe you could give my piece of cake to the raccoons though. I'll probably be too full for dessert. Sure wish I could dance like that! HA HA HA Sounds like you had a great time, Kathybelle. Happy Birthday to your niece.
